Relevance – If proven valid and reliable, DWSs could provide practitioners with an objective limb load measurement tool suitable for everyday clinical practice.

Weight distribution and plantar pressure on individual lower limb were measured using two DWSs (A, B) and MatScan during eyes open (EO) and eyes closed (EC) conditions.

Bland-Altman plot: – Good agreement between DWS and MatScan in EO and EC conditions. Area under receiver operating characteristic curve: – Significant.

DWSs could be used interchangeably with MatScan and could provide clinicians an objective measurement of limb loading suitable for clinical settings.
